Hi Vasilis



I had the same problem as you, nobody answered to this problem. Good

news , it's not a bug, just documentation issue.

I found that the algorithm used before .Net 4 was SHA1 and from .Net 4

is SHA256 .



The solution for your trouble is to specify in web.config for membership

to use :

<membership defaultProvider="DefaultMembershipProvider"

hashAlgorithmType="SHA256">



HTH,

Paul
